"Madam, madam, please let go, madam"

Feeling like he was about to be suffocated, Liu Ji begged for mercy as soon as his mouth was freed.

Besides, this was in the Lotus Courtyard, not at home. Wouldn't he have any dignity to be dragged like this? !

Gong Liangliao coughed twice to suppress his smile, but he was still protecting his child, and said to Qin Yao in a gentle voice:

"Yao Niang, please forgive him."

Qin Yao sneered, increased the strength of her arms, and squeezed Liu Ji's slender neck in a warning manner, then suddenly let go.

"How many times have I told you not to make loud noises?"

As soon as the arm on his neck was removed, Liu Ji immediately bent over and began to cough. He hid behind the teacher while coughing, his face flushed, and he nodded repeatedly, "I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare to do it again."

Gong Liangliao clicked his tongue twice, signaled the servant to pour a glass of water for Liu Ji, and while Qin Yao was putting the bacon in, he asked with concern:

"Are you okay? Why did you provoke your fierce wife? Do you know what you are doing? You hurt the enemy 800 times and hurt yourself 1,000 times! Even if you want to attract the attention of your fierce wife, you don't have to sacrifice your life."

Gong Liangliao shook his head, saying that he couldn't understand the way young people get along with each other.

Liu Ji drank two sips of water and recovered. Such recovery ability was truly enviable to Shitou and his guards.

Qin Yao had put her things away and returned. She did not ask Gong Liangliao why he decided to return to Beijing. She greeted him with a smile, then went to the backyard with Shitou and other guards to help prepare for returning to Beijing.

Liu Ji stayed, his eyes glued to her back. Even after he disappeared, he tilted his head towards the backyard, but was bounced back by Gong Liangliao's brain.

"Teacher, why did you hit me?" Liu Ji covered his head. His head turned around, but his eyes were slanted, still paying attention to the movements in the backyard.

Gong Liangliao was furious. After making the decision to return to Beijing, the person he was most worried about was his frivolous disciple Liu Ji.

Knowing Qin Yao's strength well, the old man did not expect him to restore his status as husband. He only hoped that he could stop doing evil and calm down, so that he would not die before him at any time.

"Do you know why I decided to return to Beijing?" Gong Liangliao took the initiative to raise the question that Liu Ji wanted to know most.

Sure enough, only in this way could this spineless man withdraw his mind from the backyard and squat in front of him to listen carefully.

In the front hall, the sound of the master and disciple talking casually could be heard. Qin Yao could hear it if she pricked up her ears in the backyard, but because she knew that Liu Ji would definitely report to her alone when he returned, she focused all her attention on preparing the luggage for the Qi family.

"The snow will be even deeper in three days, so you'd better bring a shovel or other snow removal tools with you. Also, the master can't stand the cold. I'll go home and ask Awang to bring the wolf skin from home. You can ask the maid to make a blanket for the master when the time comes."

After talking about Gong Liangliao, Qin Yao went to check Qi Xianguan's luggage again. Because it was still autumn when he came to the village, he only prepared two pieces of fur warm clothing.

Qin Yao asked the maid who was taking care of Qi Xianguan, "Are you going back to the capital directly? Are you going back to the Qi family's ancestral home on the way?"

The maid replied, "The master said that he would escort you directly back to the capital and not to the ancestral home."

Qin Yao nodded to show that she understood, and asked the maid to wait for the wolf skin to be delivered, and then make a windproof cloak for Qi Xiangun.

He looked at the dry food prepared by the cook. The guards and servants ate wheat cakes, while the master's food was freshly made and could be purchased from the local people in the villages and towns along the way.

Qin Yao thought of the entourage and Bai He's gang. The gentleman's freedom would definitely be restricted to a certain extent. In addition, the weather was bad, and no one knew what would happen on the road.

But the productivity here is low, and there are no convenient instant foods at all, and they cannot be made in a short period of time. In order to ensure balanced nutrition, Qin Yao asked the cook to go to the Liu family's old house and ask Zhang for two jars of pickled vegetables. She will pay the money later.

After watching the cook go to the Liu family's old house as ordered, Qin Yao stood in the yard and thought about all the details she could think of. Only after making sure that there were no omissions did she return to the front hall.

Gong Liangliao, Liu Ji, and Qi Xianguan, the master and his disciples, have finished their conversation.

When Qin Yao arrived, Liu Ji was hugging his junior brother and bidding him farewell. The scene was so heartbreaking that anyone who heard about it would cry.

Qin Yao didn't care and swept her nose with her fingertips, waiting patiently for the two brothers to complete the farewell ceremony.

Liu Ji: "Brother, please don't forget me when you go to the capital!"

Qi Xianguan: "Don't worry, Junior Brother, I will write to you from time to time."

Liu Ji: "No, that's not what I meant. I meant to say, if you become rich and powerful, don't forget me."

Qi Xianguan was startled, pushed away Liu Ji who was hugging him tightly, and sighed helplessly, "Okay."

After getting the answer he wanted, Liu Ji wiped the frozen tears from the corners of his eyes, stood up contentedly, bowed to his teacher, and then obediently followed his wife home.

On the way, without waiting for Qin Yao to ask, Liu Ji had already told her word for word about his conversation with Gong Liangliao.

The reason why he suddenly decided to return to Beijing three days later was because Gong Liangliao suddenly came to his senses.

"The teacher said that he decided to return to Beijing to pave a smooth career path for me and my junior brother while he is still useful!" Liu Ji repeated excitedly.

Ever since he learned the truth, he no longer felt worried or afraid.

Facts have proved that the teacher still loves him very much.

Thinking of this, Liu Ji was a little moved. He raised his handsome face to face the howling north wind. The chill successfully suppressed his emotions that were rising in vain.

Qin Yao sighed lightly. Gong Liangliao really cared about this rogue disciple of his.

How could the power struggle in the court be easy? Gong Liangliao is now in such a disabled state that there is very little he can use for those high and mighty people.

Beneath the old man's calm smile, there was a surging determination to die.

There was a sudden silence beside him. Liu Ji looked back suspiciously and found that Qin Yao did not follow him. She was still standing there staring at the lotus courtyard in a daze.

"Madam, what are you looking at?" Liu Ji stepped back, stood in front of her and asked, "Are you also reluctant to leave your junior brother and teacher?"

He knew that the mighty lady was actually the softest-hearted, otherwise she would not have taken action to severely injure Black Knight and save him and the teacher yesterday when she could have just stood by and watched.

Qin Yao withdrew her gaze and looked back at him. Liu Ji immediately felt a little guilty and tried to test him:

"Ma'am, don't you want to do anything to me? Like, hit me with your big fist?"

Yin Le reminded him that Qin Yao was very angry and the consequences would be serious.

But the expected fist did not hit his face.

Qin Yao glanced at him indifferently. Her handsome face was blown by the biting north wind, making her skin look even whiter and her lips look redder. Her peach blossom eyes were as clear as the ice crystals in the river. There was only her reflection in them, without any trace of pettiness, calculation or selfishness.

This man's appearance is so stable that it's scary!

Qin Yao raised her chin slightly and said, "Go home." She was already too angry.

"Oh, oh!" Liu Ji was flattered and hurried to catch up. (End of this chapter)
